Should You Play the Sympathy Card at Work? / USNews.com

If you're like many Americans, you're making a solid income that now seems smaller in the face of food- and gas-price inflation and education costs and mortgage payments.Should you play the sympathy card? Should you ask your boss for a raise, because, say, your son "needs new shoes"? Should you ask for a four-day workweek because gas is really pushing you over the edge and "the commute is killing the family budget"?

How do confession and hopes for sympathy play out professionally?



وازگان تازه‌ی متن

commute: سفر روزانه بین خانه و محل کار
splurge: ول‌خرجی کردن
devastated: بسیار ناراحت
to come out ahead: از پس برآمدن، فائق شدن
